Description
The result of the combined work of Frédéric BRÉMAUD and Jean-Claude BAUER – the latter having covered the 1987 trial for Antenne 2 – KLAUS BARBIE, THE RAT'S ROUTE retraces the life of one of the greatest war criminals of the 20th century. Drawing on historical sources and the participation of Jean-Olivier VIOUT, the Deputy General Prosecutor during this historic trial, as well as Serge KLARSFELD, a staunch advocate for the cause of Jewish deportees – who pens the foreword to this work – they deliver a necessary narrative, bearing witness to one of the most resonant trials in history.

Responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Jews and resistance fighters, including Jean Moulin, SS officer Klaus Barbie escaped justice and a double death sentence at the end of World War II. Eventually leaving his native Germany for South America, he applied the same methods there and even orchestrated the coup of dictator Hugo Banzer. A true mercenary, the man nicknamed the Butcher of Lyon was finally recognized, then pursued, until 1987, the fateful date of his trial and unprecedented conviction in France: life imprisonment for crimes against humanity.
